[PSF-Marketing-WG] PSF Sponsorship Levels

The idea here is address the concern that using the same level names

would confuse sponsors. By folding PyCon US and PSF sponsorships into asingle package, we could use the industry standard level names for thosepackages, avoid confusion, attract more PSF sponsors and increase ouroverall sponsorship levels.

So the idea is that a PSF Sponsor would also be a PyCon sponsor? When I

was at O'Reilly, that's exactly what I wanted. It was always confusing tome that the PSF sponsorship was separate from the PyCon participation/sponsorship.

Yeah, I also think it would be a good way to simplify things. As far as Iknow, the main blocker was finding someone with the time to work throughthe logistical and financial details and present a concrete proposal to theBoard for consideration. (The last serious discussions on the topic werebefore I joined the Board though, so I could be wrong on that front)

There's also an interesting question as to how such a model would interactwith the "International PyCon Prospectus" idea, since PyCon US anchors the"Americas Bundle" in the draft proposal.

I like being consistent, however, will this cause confusion for

companies that are sponsors for both PyCon and PSF? There is already comeconfusion over this when we send out invoices.
